27 Jul Hilary Duff Posts Underwear Photo To Show How Pregnancy Has Changed Her Body

Pregnancy is one of the most life-changing experiences a person can go through. I mean, you are literally growing another life inside your body. It’s an intense process and women really deserve a medal for going through it.

Of course, pregnancy is also a very exciting time for any expectant parent, but the actual process of the pregnancy is difficult to understand if it’s not something you’ve personally experienced – no matter how much research you do.

By the way, here are best foods to eat if you’re trying to get pregnant:

From an outside perspective, it may seem like it’s a time where expectant mothers have it pretty good.

Let’s face it, throughout their pregnancy and especially by the time they can legitimately call themselves heavily pregnant, they’re often given free rein to act as ‘hormonally’ as they like. They can eat indulgently as they like, have as many mood swings as they like, and perhaps best of all, be as lazy as they like.

Yes, this sitcomesque image of a pregnant lady putting her feet up and devouring a tub of ice cream is a very humorous and, in some cases, relatable one. However, we certainly shouldn’t undermine the aspects of pregnancy that make it one of the most challenging things in the world.

Mom-of-two-to-be, Hilary Duff, knows this all too well.

When it emerged last month that the 30-year-old actress was pregnant with her second child, we were all delighted. Well, at least those of us who are actually fans of the Lizzie McGuire actress.

She already has a six-year-old, whom she clearly adores, and personally, I can’t wait for her and her beloved boyfriend, Matthew Koma, to bring another little bundle of joy into the world.

But this time around, Hilary has a message to share – pregnancy is no walk in the park.

Yep, there are a number of side effects that can make it incredibly painful and debilitating.

In fact, the actress-turned-singer recent took to her Instagram page to share with her fans the most difficult aspects of carrying a child.

She also made sure to express her love and admiration for all the mothers out there who soldier on in spite of how physically and emotionally draining it can be.

The former child star posted a photo of herself in her underwear while showing off her growing bump. Included alongside the shot was this very encouraging caption:

“The boobs are big the belly is big the body is big. Man.. pregnancy is hard. Giving love to all mamas who make it look effortless… this journey is hard as hell and also incredibly special.”

“Lovely to have a little life inside and to daydream of all the new adventures to come buuuut almost impossible to get my own shoes on..sick of getting up 9 times a night to pee and looking at this weird body in the mirror that is not my own at the moment.”

“Women are so badass, this was just a note to remind myself and remind others how’s strong and beautiful you are! WE GOT THIS!”

Needless to say, her words of support and solidarity were incredibly well-received by her followers who praised the 30-year-old for speaking candidly about the upsides and the downsides of pregnancy.

“CURRENT SITUATION…thanks for the reminder #28weeks ,” wrote Instagram user @miss_tammy32.

Another Instagram user, @kjenks18, expressed similar sentiments and even shared her own experience, writing, “I’m 8 months pregnant with my first child. I will tell you, it was easy up until a few weeks ago. I’m still dealing with the changes going on to my body, it’s crazy! Good luck and hang in there, it’s almost time to meet the little one!”

Remember when this teenager went on Dr. Phil claiming she was pregnant with Baby Jesus?

Other fans made sure to let their idol know how fantastic she looked, including @fearfuzzybear who wrote, “Good on you for, not only spreading positivity but also showing the human aspect of pregnancy! You’re so gorgeous, babes!”

Whereas @tvshowsandsunflowers wrote, “You’re slaying queen!!! Ignore any haters that may come at you. You’re creating something beautiful and slowly giving life, may I also add looking stunning and flawless as ever.”

There’s no denying that Hilary still looks absolutely flawless pregnant. Anyway, this time around, she’s expecting a little girl, so let’s hope she’ll be sharing her wise and comforting words with her daughter as she gets older too!
